I was wondering how far I'd have to scroll before getting to someone who doesn't understand statistics complaining about the sample size...

There's likely been trillions of posts on Facebook during that time frame. Is a sample size of 8000 really sufficient for a corpus that large?

Have you ever heard of "margin of error"?

Learn statistics, it's actually super informative.
